Both lids (7 & 8) must be latched closed
before use. Inspect seals for damage
and/or obstruction. Do not use if lids, seals
or latches are damaged or inoperable.
IF AMPFIBIAN MAX TRIPS IN SERVICE
First rule out that the MAX is at fault by
performing the above test procedure. The
MAX will trip due to overload or an earth
leakage fault. If you are unsure of the
cause, or you believe there is an earth
leakage fault, turn off all power and
contact a licensed electrician. If you
believe there is an overload, switch off or
unplug some of the appliances and reset
the MAX.
The Ampfibian MAX is rated 240 Volts with
a maximum current rating of 10A.
Do not try to open or repair the MAX
yourself. No user-serviceable parts are
inside. If the supply cord is damaged, it
shall be replaced by the manufacturer or
its service agent in order to avoid a hazard.
Test the MAX before each use as
described in step 3. This device will only
protect against faults to earth through the
body, but not against active to neutral
faults.
This device must be connected DIRECTLY
to an outlet socket. It must not be
connected via cord extension sets.
Wet seals will freeze and will not recover
their shape until thawed. Do not open
frozen unit until thawed. Opening frozen
unit may result in damage to seals.
